There have been authors that have impacted my thought process and perception, all thru out my walk in life but Jensen has forced me to re-examine my entire concept of what's 'normal', acceptable and meaningful in a way that leaves me unable to walk it back.

And I don't want to walk it back. I am filled with rage, futility and clearly seeing the invisible chains of this culture.

The only solution IS to dismantle industrial civilization.

Deep Green Resistance (DGR) is a movement based on the book, co-authored by Derrick Jensen, called Deep Green Resistance: Strategy to Save the Planet. DGR has a plan of action for anyone determined to fight for this planet-and win. If you've ever been inspired by Derrick's work, then here's where the solutions are. The time for action is now. No more ineffective actions - piecemeal, reactive, and sad. Now this war has two sides. Learn how to join the resistance: deepgreenresistance d o t org

> The only solution IS to dismantle industrial civilization.

EXACTLY, *especially* if we define " 'bringing down civilization' [as] depriving the rich of their ability to steal from the poor, and depriving the powerful of their ability to destroy the planet. (And nobody except a sociopath or a capitalist could disagree with that)." -- DJ
